Monday Miscellany


Head on over to Carissa's blog and join in on the fun this Monday!

1~ Happy Birthday to me today! So crazy to think I am now 26 and will be having our first baby any day now! Still kinda holding out hope that he will arrive as a birthday present to me today.

2~ Farmers market fun! So this Saturday at the farmers market I was getting some of my favorite pastries at the greek stand and the lady helping me walks up with her hand out covering my belly. She then says "I can't look at pregnant women, my daughter is about to have a baby any day now" I laugh and she proceeds to tell me "My daughter is giving birth in water. Who does that? I just don't understand these pregnant women today". I just laugh and give her my order. She continues to tell me about her daughter and how they aren't speaking currently cause she told her daughter she is crazy for giving birth in water but it was quite hard to understand all she was saying because she had a thick greek accent and one tooth. I'm not kidding, she was an older lady and just had one scraggly tooth peeking through her mouth. After I get my pastries I go to walk away and she looks me in the eye and says I can tell you are having a boy. I told her she was right and that he was due anytime now and to not worry I wouldn't be having a water baby ;) She cracked me up and I am kinda hoping she is there next week again to provide me entertainment!

3~ Quaker Steak and Lube. They have amazing wings! So as part of my birthday weekend we went out to get lunch there Saturday. As we are eating our wings our male server comes up and is asking us all about the baby, he then goes on for a few minutes about what order he wants to have kids in, a boy then a girl then another boy, and tells us that everyone in his family have names that start with a J so he is thinking about doing that too with his family. This is my first encounter with a male who seemed equally excited as all the females our baby on the way.

4~ Crazy preggo emotions. For no apparently reason yesterday I decided that hubby's greeting me kiss was all wrong. I proceeded to cry for 15 minutes after he kissed me because it wasn't the way I thought he should kiss me. Seriously, I don't know what got into me. I blame it on my overwhelming desire to meet this baby today :) Hubby blames it on my hormones. But in any case I was crazy. Glad he is able to deal with me and all my antics.

Hope you all have a great Monday and remember those service men and women who have given so much for us to be safe here in America!

  1. Happy Birthday to you!!!

    Savor these last days of being pregnant. It just feels like it was me pregnant with my first and now she'll be 14 on June 3. Time goes fast. So fast.

    And the emotions? Normal. :)

  2. Happy Birthday! Hope it is fabulous. Maybe the baby will come tomorrow, so it will sort of be a birthday present just late ;) I wanted a Valentine's Baby so bad, I did everything to shake her out, she thought Feb 15th would be better :)HA!

    I was a complete emotional wreck the entire time, it is weird the little things that set you off.
